Remarks

General Remarks: Kozár (2004) revised the genus and classified it in his new tribe, Arctortheziini, in the subfamily Ortheziinae.

Biology: Found under mosses and stones on the roots of different plants, also
reported from ant nests. (Szita, et al., 2014a)

Systematics: Cockerell (1902h) described Arctorthezia as a "section" of Orthezia. According to the Rules of Zoological Nomenclature, Article 10(e) a "section" is deemed to be a subgeneric name when proposed for a genus-group division of a genus. Thus, Cockerell is considered to be the author of Arctorthezia.
